Many investment advisors argue that after stocks have declined in value for 2 consecutive years, people should invest heavily because the market rarely declines 3 years in a row. a) Since the stock market began in 1872, there have been two consecutive losing years eight times. In six of those cases, the market rose during the following year. Does this confirm the advice

Answer: Yes it does

Explanation:

The investment advisors say that the market rarely declines three years in a row.

Since 1872, it has declined two years in a row 8 times and three years in a row, only twice.

This means out of 8 times, it declined twice. Percentage of times it declined was:

= 2 / 8 * 100%

= 25%

25% while not rare, is a good enough percentage to trust the advice of the investment advisors.
